Spin-Coupled Generalized Valence Bond (SCGVB) theory provides the foundation for a
comprehensive theory of the electronic structure of molecules. SCGVB theory offers a …

We investigate the bonding mechanism in ozone (O3) and its sulfur-substituted analogues,
SO2, OS2, and S3. By analyzing their ground-state multireference configuration interaction …

In this article we describe the unique insights into the electronic structure of molecules
provided by generalized valence bond (GVB) theory. We consider selected prototypical …

The photochemistry of sodium thiosulfate (S2O32–) in aqueous solutions is rather
complicated. Several sulfur-containing radical anions are formed upon photoexcitation. Any …

There are many well-known differences in the physical and chemical properties of ozone
(O3) and sulfur dioxide (SO2). O3 has longer and weaker bonds than O2, whereas SO2 has …

Arylsulfinyl radicals are key intermediates in sulfoxide chemistry. The parent molecule,
phenylsulfinyl radical PhSO•, has been generated for the first time in the gas phase through …

Ozone and its sulfur-substituted isomers are studied by means of the Breathing Orbital
Valence Bond ab initio method, with the objective of estimating their controversial diradical …

Two hitherto unreported sulfur‐centered radicals CF3SO. and CF3OS. were generated in
the gas phase through high‐vacuum flash pyrolyses of sulfoxide CF3S (O) X (X= CF3, Cl …

The number of singly occupied orbitals in the ground-state atomic configuration of an
element defines its nominal valence. For carbon and sulfur, with two singly occupied orbitals …

Sulfur–oxygen chemistry encompasses a rich variety of chemical species and reactions.
Sulfur–oxygen bonds can be quite short and strong, and historically, there has been …
